I just got what looks like a scam through FamilySearch messages. Has anyone else had this and if so how do I report it?

copy of it below. It has all the signs of being suspicious.

    In the 3-dot menu for that chat, you'll see an option for Report Abuse. Use that to let FamilySearch know about it. Spam in Chat is rare, but FS definitely wants to know about it and clean it up.
